When installing xfce onto a fresh Arch system, one of the programs in the xfce-goodies package (might be thunar-archiver-plugin or something along those lines) requires the additional installation of a archiving program such as xarchiver or ark etc. Perhaps this is worth a note?

:I second this. When you install {{package|thunar-archive-plugin}}, a post-install message is printed out stating that you should "please install xarchiver, squeeze, file-roller or ark to use the plugin". Not everyone pays attention to those messages (myself included, sometimes), and it seems reasonable to repeat the message in the wiki. Anyone else?

Copy From [[ArchWiki:Reports]]: should first look if there is a package for that theme, and also consider whether creating a PKGBUILD before extracting to /usr/share/icons. -- [[User:Fengchao|Fengchao]] ([[User talk:Fengchao|talk]]) 02:35, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

A new section has recently been added: [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Xfce&curid=2430&diff=254850&oldid=254611&rcid=365023]. I can power off my system from Xfce's logout menu without being member of the 'power' group, can somebody else confirm? -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 14:54, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

:Some context: I just re-installed Arch yesterday (or was it two days ago?). I'm not using any sort of login manager on my PC. Instead, I just log in to a tty concole, then execute {{ic|startx}} to start xfce. You can see my current {{ic|~/.xinitrc}} [http://pastebin.com/S0LAbD4E here].

:::@Ichimonji10: I'm not using a login manager either, and my xinitrc is identical to yours. Did you use the latest ISO for installing Arch? Are you sure your system is up to date? Are you sure the mirror you're using is synchronized? I invite you to ask for clarifications on the forums and then report here. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 10:11, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

::::@Lonaowna and @Kynikos, thanks for the feedback. I must've reasoned incorrectly while installing my system up a couple days ago. Today, I removed myself from the {{ic|power}} group (then logged back in), which means that I only belong to the {{ic|wheel}} and {{ic|ichimonji10}} groups. Sure enough, I can still power off the machine. I'll go ahead and nuke the section I added. Oh, and @Kynikos... you give the most wonderfully polite criticism. Seriously.
